About this short report

As you read your short report, or any other astrological report, keep in mind that the energies interpreted here are your birth potentials. However, you may or may not choose to actualize these energies in the manner described. Your age, sex, socio-economic situation, education, environment, level of development, and many other factors contribute to the ways in which you express your natal energies. Remember, the planets do not compel you to do or be anything. They influence you, but you still have the free will to determine your own life.

Neptune opposition Neptune: Blurred categories

Mid-April 2016 until mid-February 2018: This is a time in your life when the old categories of
living and experience cease to have any real meaning for you. Your consciousness will be
heightened, although your initial feeling is likely to be one of confusion. But you will be
able to learn the lessons of this period only if you are willing to be patient and allow the
universe to reveal what it has to show you.

The general effect will be a blurring of categories, an ability to see relationships among
things that you were never aware of before. You will have a better understanding of the
inherent unity of all existence, which will be reflected in a greater empathy between you and
others, an ability to put yourself in another person's place. You will learn many things,
even after a full life of learning everything that you thought you could. And you will be in
a position to teach others as well.

But these developments will come about only if you are willing to let go of old ideas.
Otherwise this will be a time of confusion and defeat, when you feel that you must withdraw
into yourself. This inner drive to withdraw is likely to be manifested as a need for some
sort of hospitalization. Or you may choose to withdraw as a sign of completion rather than
defeat, in which case this influence signifies that you will begin to find peace and respite.
At your age, this influence should not hold the horrors that it sometimes holds for younger
people, unless you have become fearfully rigid.

Mid-December 2017 until end of August 2018: During this time you will make many adjustments in
your life, separating yourself from persons or circumstances that are doing you no good. You
will change many standards of behavior and morality that you realize are inappropriate and
generally realign your conception of duty and responsibility more in accordance with reality.
In the process you may experience a considerable amount of tension, and for a time you may be
confused, not quite knowing whether to go backward or forward, to expand or cut back.

Probably you would be well advised to go off by yourself for a while, because other people's
advice will be of little value, unless you select your advisors with great care. The
challenge here is to increase and go forward in some areas but to cut back in others. You
will not be able to keep everything going, no matter how much you want to. Unfortunately
there is no way of telling in advance which areas of your life will be affected.

Under this influence there is often a strong feeling of restlessness and uncertainty. You
know clearly that something is wrong, but you are not sure what it is. The best way to deal
with this is not to be in a hurry. Usually you will have all the time you need to make a
decision based on careful observation of the facts, so don't rush.

In general you should take any opportunity that comes along now to broaden your scope and
release yourself from limitations that have held you back. The trick is to do this in a way
that is not destructively disruptive.

Jupiter sextile Sun: Growth and optimism

End of January 2018 until beginning of October 2018: This is a time when life seems to flow
very easily. With little effort, you are able to move in the direction that you intend, and
even your ideals seem to be within reach of fulfillment. It is a period of growth, optimism
and taking it easy. In many respects this is a good time to sit back and take a long look at
how well your life is working out.

Because you feel vigorous and energetic, this is an excellent time to advance your interests
in almost any area, although that impetus may be lacking.

Relationships with others are usually quite good now, and you enjoy being with friends. This
influence often indicates good times, as your enthusiasm for life bubbles over and affects
everyone around you.

This is also a good time for making plans, for you are inclined to "think big," which is a
general function of your optimism. While you can overdo this tendency, you will probably be
alert to opportunities that you would normally overlook or be afraid to take.

You feel generous and tolerant, and not easily bothered when something goes wrong in your
world. You recognize that there is plenty of time to correct the problem, so you don't get
upset. You aren't annoyed by persons who usually irritate you, and you may even feel like
patching up relationships that have gone bad or become difficult.

Pluto square Ascendant: Apparent power struggles

Beginning of February 2018 until mid-December 2019: This influence usually provides some very
intense encounters with others, which may completely transform the important relationships in
your life. The problem is that this influence is not always gentle in its effects. You may
feel that each of your important relationships, especially a close personal one such as
marriage, is going through a period of upheaval that gives you little peace. A relationship
that is in great difficulty or that has outlived its function in your life may end altogether,
even though you don't want it to. You can be sure that if a relationship seems to be moving
irrevocably to a close now that it is making way for a new life for you. New relationships
will replace the old and serve a more constructive purpose.

Persons may enter your life who have a very powerful effect upon your mind and emotions,
almost as if they have a magical hold over you. No matter how you strive to escape their
influence, you seem to be held by an invisible thread. Such people may be holding onto you by
a subconscious complex, taking advantage of a weakness or fear within you and using this
knowledge to coerce you. They may even be doing this quite inadvertently; their knowledge may
be as subconscious as the complex within you that gives them the power. It is important that
you learn what part of you is giving someone this power. Do not blame the other person, no
matter how culpable he or she seems. Through apparent power struggles with others you will
uncover your weaknesses and learn how to deal with them.

In all dealings with other people, be very careful not to resort to underhanded or subversive
tactics. This influence makes some people act ruthlessly or feel that their goals justify any
means that will attain them. But this kind of attitude can set forces in motion that are
difficult to control and extremely negative in their consequences. These forces can lead to a
total breakdown in your relationships, if you allow them to begin.

Mid-March 2018 until beginning of January 2020: Under this influence you may have to contend
with rather strange moods and feelings. You may feel that your hunches are extremely
accurate, but be careful - the language of your unconscious mind, which is speaking rather
strongly to you now, is very different from the language of the conscious mind. Your hunches
may mislead you.

At the same time, you are more subject to outside influences now. If you are around an angry
person or someone under the influence of any other intense feeling, you will feel their energy
strongly. For this reason, you should avoid people who are under the influence of strong
negative emotions. Your empathy is so great that you will easily become subject to their
feelings. And avoid anyone who tries to control your thinking through subtle suggestions and
hints, which is very likely to happen, because the thoughts they instill will seem to come
from within you - another good reason for avoiding negative people.

There may be other problems in your home or personal life or with emotional relationships. It
is extremely important that you try to communicate with those around you as clearly as
possible. Misunderstandings are rife under this influence. You may begin a love relationship
that is hopelessly unrealistic and yet very fascinating.

Moods and emotions may appear and disappear with great speed. Do not take them too seriously
or get too wrapped up in contemplating them, for you will only make mountains out of
molehills. Even when you are disappointed about something, do not dwell on it. Your own
negative emotions can be very destructive.

Pluto conjunction Sun: Facing the shadow

End of March 2018 until end of November 2020: This is a time of great change in your life,
when you will strive as never before to accomplish your ambitions. You will work harder than
ever and not allow obstacles to prevent you from achieving your objectives. If you handle the
energies of this influence skillfully, you should be able to go far with it, but you should be
aware of certain pitfalls.

During this time you can work to remove old outworn structures in your own life and in the
lives of those around you, so that all of you can experience a new life. But you must observe
two limitations. First, this influence gives tremendous drive and energy, but only for the
elimination of the truly old and outworn, not for doing anything you want. And second, it is
a transcendental influence. Therefore its energies are not easily harnessed to the purposes
of unenlightened egotism. What you do with this influence should be for the eventual
betterment of everyone around you, not just yourself. You are the steward of this energy, not
the owner. If you use it for purely selfish ends, you will provoke such furious opposition
that you will eventually be unable to do anything. Similarly, if you use this energy to
remove structures that are not yet ready to pass away, you will be unable to make progress.
This influence signifies the need to replace an old, inferior state of being with a new and
truly superior state. It does not just arbitrarily replace one with another.

The last point to remember is that you must do something now. You cannot simply sit back and
let this time go by without making some changes. If you do not make them consciously,
circumstances will take over for you, probably with unpleasant results. You may have to face
some aspects of yourself that you do not like, but this is part of the process, and you will
find that those aspects are not really so bad. They only looked bad because you have never
given them a place in your conscious personality.
